Precalculus
by Ron Larson Robert P. HostetlerA firm foundation in algebra is necessary for success in college-level mathe¬matics courses. Precalculus, Fourth Edition, is designed to help students devel¬op their proficiency in algebra, and so strengthen their understanding of the underlying concepts. Although the basic concepts of algebra are reviewed in the text, it is assumed that most students taking this course have completed two years of high school algebra. The text takes every opportunity to show how algebra is a modern model¬ing language for real-life problems. Examples, exercises, and group activities --many using real data--provide a real-life context to help students grasp math¬ematical concepts. As appropriate, graphing technology is utilized throughout the text to enhance student understanding of mathematical concepts.

by Julie MillerParamount to the development of Precalculus was the invaluable feedback provided by the teachers from around the country who reviewed the manuscript or attended a market development event over the course of the several years the text was in development.
Precalculus
by OpenStaxPrecalculus is intended for college-level Precalculus students. Since Precalculus courses vary from one institution to the next, we have attempted to meet the needs of as broad an audience as possible, including all of the content that might be covered in any particular course. The result is a comprehensive book that covers more ground than an instructor could likely cover in a typical one- or two-semester course; but instructors should find, almost without fail, that the topics they wish to include in their syllabus are covered in the text. Many chapters of Openstax Precalculus are suitable for other freshman and sophomore math courses such as College Algebra and Trigonometry; however, instructors of those courses might need to supplement or adjust the material. Openstax will also be releasing a College Algebra and Trigonometry title tailored to the particular scope, sequence, and pedagogy of those courses.
